Eva Longoria flirted with veganism for a while, but it didn’t last. In a recent interview, when the actress was asked “What’s your biggest health regret,” she named veganism. Not because she doesn’t think veganism is wonderful, but simply because she wasn’t educated about what a vegan could eat.

Longoria said, “I love the philosophy behind veganism, but I went from one day eating chicken and meat to eating just salad. I didn’t know how to be a vegan. I didn’t know about soy or almond butter. I didn’t know that there are great breads. So I literally stuck to salads. And I think I passed out the first week.”

Perhaps now that Longoria knows about all of the delicious foods a vegan can eat, she can try again. Quick! Some wonderful vegan celeb take her on a dining tour of the best vegan restaurants in the country. Show Longoria, who obviously respects veganism, just how much good food there is out there. I mean, a nice salad is great, but a seitan piccata is way better.

Isn’t she a big fur wearer? So I imagine the pitiful attempt at veganism was a dietry choice, rather than her actually having a heart!

It is so easy for some people, such as yourself, to look down on others because they are not meeting your standard of Veganism. Anyone who converts to a plant-based diet is someone you should support and pursued to live better – unless you don’t have a heart for all the factory-farmed animals they they will eat because they are not encouraged to be vegan.

You can always work on their fashion choices too, but don’t put yourself on a pedestal – I’m sure if I walked into your house I could find a plethora of things that are not plant-based. Really, give people a chance to embrace veganism.

Not knowing what to eat as a vegan is what makes people fail at it. Before going vegan, or when you start being a vegan, better prepare some new cookbooks and read and learn, and read and learn. It’s a whole new world of food.

When we reject human injustice, nobody needs to go on a “journey” to get to that point. Where animals are concerned, we’re all too eager to pack the car, don the sunglasses and go for ride before we see the truth of what has been in front of us the entire time.
